rubio, the new marco rubio, the involved marco rubio to continue down the path for immigration reform. i think what the president is saying, look, if you don't do it, i will do it, and he is stepping forward. we know he has been working on a plan. i read through the president's work, and i think it is a great place and it is exactly where the senate has been talking about. >> sir, there are a lot of questions about how this leaked rough draft got put out there and whether it truly is a leak. david axelrod appeared on "morning joe" with this reaction. >> the mistake here was to disseminate it so widely within the administration it got leaked, and i am sure if they could, they would take that back. >> so the white house says really been offended by the fact that there have been leaks before, classified leaks, that they have taken umbrage with anybody pointing the fingers saying they did this on purpose. in this situation they're going to get fingers pointed at them saying they did this on purpose to smoke out the people like marco rubio who would be adamantly against anything in there a

this is marco rubio's moment. he's really trying to take the reins in the senate and also important to the entire process because house republicans, conservatives in the lower chamber, they are looking at rubio. he's the point man. if he starts to walk away from a deal the whole thing could go up in flames. rubio is the player to watch on the republican side, at least and he wants to direct it. that's why he was so unhappy with the white house leak. >> he used a word for directing. there's a fight here for ownership of immigration reform and that's what a lot of this is about. >> if there is a comprehensive deal, if immigration does get done, as most suspect it will, won't the president get the lion's share of the credit. >> i think he. is he eats leader of the free world and marco rubio for all intents and purposes he's posturing. he needs to take a bipartisan approach to solving the problem, not nit-picking the president's draft proposal. >> yeah. >> but if the president wants it -- if the president really wants

it's interesting because marco rubio is overseas in the middle east. ali alice, marco rubio has said he feels good about the ongoing negotiations in the senate and it hopeful the final product is something that can pass with strong bipartisan support. the president reaching out on immigration while hammering the gop over the sequester. what do you think about the carrot and stick strategy? >> i think that the concern is that i think it's a great thing the president did reach out as he said, we have rubio and mccain and graham sticking their neck out on this issue. it's good they had a conversation but we do know the president met with the democrat members of gang of eight hoping to bang out this immigration plan last week. why didn't he talk with republicans at that point? then over the weekend we have this quote, leaked document that came out and republicans are finding out about this after the fact. that flies in the face of having any real conversation. and if the president really wants the gang of eight and members of congress to work on immigratio
